There's no requirement on the dak/ftp-master side. We're not using them
yet only because we don't want to force people to update dpkg/apt before
doing the etch->lenny upgrade.

Th example should mention:
udeb: libz 1 zlib1g-udeb (>= 1:1.1.3)
(the patch refers to "zlib1g" instead of "zlib1g-udeb")
Because the point of adding a udeb-specific line is to have a dependency
on an udeb instead of the normal deb. :)
Otherwise it's ok.
